Job description

**Okay, this is a pretty cool one. We need someone to be the right-hand person of the Founder and CEO ( ) and help us run Responsibly. So if you want to get experience with managing and running a VC-backed tech start-up, read on!Responsibly 🌍🌱Responsibly is a sustainability tech start-up with a vision of making every purchase in the world responsible.We’re founded by serial entrepreneurs with previous successes like Ofload, Dixa, Neurons, and more, and are funded by some of Europe’s top VCs and angels.We’re at the most exciting part of our journey (yet!) where the product is being picked up by some of the biggest companies out there, and we have an incredibly exciting roadmap ahead of us! 🤘Let’s change the world together 🎯If you already know why sustainable procurement is sexy, then skip this section, if not, read on!Look, you probably already know that there are not many bigger problems out there than the climate, but did you know that more than 40% of global emissions, or really any ESG issue, are directly or indirectly impacted by procurement? That’s because companies have an incredible amount of power (‘purchasing power’) when selecting and managing suppliers, so if we can put sustainability on every supplier scorecard out there, we really can change the world.But it’s hard! A company will have anywhere from 100 – 100,000 suppliers and analyzing each of their sustainability efforts is an impossible task, and most ESG ratings suck.That’s what we’re trying to change. Responsibly’s ai-powered due diligence engine automates the due diligence on every supplier across every single esg data point on your suppliers (from risk and violations to positive actions), and turns that into insights to ultimately help companies build more sustainable supply chains.Pretty cool right?
